Findings revealed biological pathways as potential intervention points, and demonstrated in fruit flies potential therapeutic strategies.

Unlike virtually every other cell in the human body, the syncytiotrophoblast doesn't have a single nucleus. It has roughly 10 ...

Life on Earth may have started with a molecule that still runs our cells today. As researchers probe ribonucleic acid in the ...

Metamaterials are composites with a very precisely controlled structure. It is this structure that determines the properties of the metamaterial, not the substances it is made of. Typically, a ...

A recent international research project has used advanced microscopy techniques and computational modeling to discover why ...

"By cleverly combining new techniques for analyzing DNA at the level of individual molecules, we can achieve real breakthroughs in research into conditions such as dementia," predicts Professor John ...

A chemical used in some over-the-counter eye drops may affect liver cells and be transformed to a PFAS-like substance. This is according to a new study from Örebro University published in Environment ...

Viruses attack nearly every living organism on Earth. To do so, they rely on highly specialized proteins that recognize and ...

Aircraft wing-shaped structures inside tiny channels produce consistent drug delivery particles at any scale, from small laboratory tests to factory production, while substantially cutting costs.

This puzzle is known as the problem of time, and it remains one of the most persistent obstacles to a unified theory of ...

Mount Sinai and BPGbio scientists uncover novel molecular drivers from live brain samples that direct human brain structure and function from ...

Most cells in the human body exist in complex three-dimensional environments, yet they are still commonly studied on flat plastic dishes.
